Is it going to stay CF or are you gonna paint it?

It’s going to stay CF for now. After all my other exterior mods are done the car will get wrapped.

I think they really missed an opportunity to carry the lines from the hood and the roof somehow.

What's it look like from inside? Add much wind noise?

VABAM 12-21-2018 01:39 PM

I was able to weigh both using a baggage scale. Couldn’t get a consistent weight with baggage scale though. The OEM with mounting hardware is about 55lbs. The VIS hatch is about 33lbs with mounting hardware.

Interesting, I'd have thought bigger savings. The rear window is massive, I'd guess it would be 30 pounds alone, Nissan must have used thinner glass to keep the weight down. Is the hatch aluminum like the doors?

No added wind noise that I could hear but I haven’t gone over 60 yet with it. I doubt it will add any though.

I vote win looks good, would like to see this on maybe a pearl white... contrasting CF carried up top from front to back would look pretty nize.

Don’t forget the OEM hatch is made out of aluminum.

When I squint and imagine the color matching, I think it looks pretty good.

My CF spoiler add-on is getting ugly and I thought of just starting from scratch with a new hatch, and I also thought I going CF on the hatch. So this would be an instant new CF hatch with spoiler, and something different.

I love the shot from the rear. Looks clean and sleek even though I see the lack of continuity with the OEM lines that some are commenting on. If color-matched... I'm sold :yum:

Agreed, IMO that integrated spoiler is even less aggressive than the OE sport I'm trying to beef up.
